Molecular Devices FlexStation 3 Multi-Mode Microplate Reader Unit 4
Product Description
The Molecular Devices FlexStation 3 Multi-Mode Microplate Reader Unit 4 is a benchtop analytical instrument designed for versatile detection in biotechnology and molecular diagnostics. This multi-mode reader integrates multiple detection technologies, making it essential for research in bioprocessing, gene editing, synthetic biology, and molecular cloning workflows.
Key features include:
- Detection Modes: Absorbance (ABS), Luminescence (LM), Fluorescence (FL), Time-Resolved Fluorescence (TRF), and Fluorescence Polarization (FP)
- Detection Range: Excitation 250–850 nm; Emission 360–850 nm, Absorbance 200–1000 nm
- Microplate Formats: Supports 6-, 12-, 24-, 48-, 96-, and 384-well plates for high-throughput screening and biopharmaceutical production pipelines
- Temperature Control: Incubator function from 2°C above ambient up to 45°C enabling live-cell imaging and enzyme kinetics assays under controlled conditions
- Fluidics and Pipetting: Integrated 8-channel pipetting head for real-time reagent addition with volumes up to 200 µL, supporting kinetic assays and compound additions critical in molecular biology
- Reading Modes: Both top and bottom reading options enhance assay flexibility for fluorescence and luminescence measurements
- Shaking and Trituration: Programmable shaking (0–999 seconds) optimizes sample mixing for consistent assay results
Performance specifications for 96-well plates:
- Absorbance reading time: 18 seconds
- Fluorescence reading time: 17 seconds (top or bottom)
- Luminescence reading time: 2 minutes (top or bottom)
- Fluorescence Polarization: 42 seconds (top read)
- Time-Resolved Fluorescence: 17 seconds (top or bottom read)
This unit supports critical applications such as ion channel assays, GPCR signaling studies, enzyme kinetics, cytotoxicity evaluation, and protein-protein interaction analysis. Its compact design fits standard laboratory environments, enhancing workflow efficiency for biotechnology and clinical research facilities.
The instrument is fully functional, serviced, and includes the SoftMax Pro software v7.0 with perpetual licensing, communication and power cables. It is validated by rigorous in-house testing for fluorescence protocols, absorbance accuracy, temperature stability, motor functions, and shaking performance, ensuring reliable operation for molecular diagnostics and synthetic biology research.
This model is widely adopted in synthetic biology research and biopharmaceutical production pipelines, offering a versatile solution for high-throughput screening and molecular interaction studies. External plate adapters and optional extended warranties are available, along with remote setup and training services to support seamless integration into biotechnology workflows.
